My best friend was shot and killed for trying to break into a neighbors lawn trailer. Initially I was mad at the guy (what person wouldn’t be?) - but over time, I realized that he had made those decisions on his own, and he suffered the consequences of them.

If my wife had done the same thing and gotten herself killed - I’d do the same thing probably. Probably be mad at police initially, then mad at her for choosing to do something so stupid. But in the end, I wouldn’t blame the police unless they did something unreasonable. My wife was having a medical episode at the time, and genuinely probably needed to be taken to the hospital instead of being arrested, but the fact of the matter is she was swerving in and out of traffic so their pulling her over ultimately was a good thing. She could have gotten my son that was riding with her killed.
